My Family

Well now that Devin and I are finally getting settled into married life, I figured I could update my blog a little bit! We both have started new jobs and are getting used to the routine of not seeing each other some days! This problem came about because I finally got a 8-5 job and Devin is still doing the whole restaurant thing. But he is now managing at Hopper's and working more hours! But because this wonderful man took that position, we now have benefits! Health insurance, vacation time, and our favorite...A MANAGER MEAL CARD! Needless to say, when we don't feel like cooking, we are eating at the local Red Robin or Rudy River! Sometimes Hopper's, if I give into him, cause he always wants to eat there! He's enjoying the position and learing a lot! Being the manager of a restaurant really opens your eyes! As for me, I am now working as the receptionist at Woodside Homes in North Salt Lake, and I'm really liking! The people are really nice and I'm getting a hang of the work that I do! It's nice to be in the grown up world! (Other than bills, but that's life I guess)

Devin has really taking a liking to my little puppers, Bella! Okay, "Like" is not the right term...he absolutely ADORES her!

(Such a little princess on the pillow!)

He does get a little annoyed, cause she tends to follow you EVERYWHERE you go in the house, and sometimes gets too close and her cold little nose bumps into your calf! She spends her time watching tv with us, which usually includes her sitting right on top of one of us, or making a cave in the blanket! He plays tug a war with her, and loves when she brings toys! He would rather do without her rope that she is known to never go without!

(Our family photo shoot! Neither one of them were really happy or willing!)

We went and saw "Cinderella" at the Murray Amphitheater! We went with my mom, GMA B, Stef, and Annie, along with her family (minus Braden)

(Devin LOVED it)

The girls loved it and it definitely brought back memories from watching the 8 mm tape of the original one! Stef and I were able to sing along with most of it! During intermission, they allowed all the little "princes and princesses" to parade on stage and take a bow!

(Kelsey and Stef, then Macy on stage, cutest little prince! Notice the TIARA on his head!)

We've got a big week ahead of us! On Thurday, its the first UTAH game! We got season tickets this year, thanks to my WONDERFUL GMA B! I'm really excited to show him the true and winning school! :) He even bought me these super cool UTES shoes (pictures to come) and a child's UTES jersey (XXL) from Wally World for the games! And then on Saturday, we have the first BYU game...duhn duhn duhn! At these games, there are probably 16-20 DeMann cousins, Uncle's and of course, the one and only Jack DeMann! And yes, even though I bleed RED through and through...I'm a supportive wife and will wear a dreaded BYU t-shirt that his siblings so thoughtfully got for me! (Since I obviously bleed red, and he's blue til he dies, will our kids bleed PURPLE? Weber State anyone?! Ha ha)

In a previous post, I talked about spying on my neighbors...well lo and behold, I still am! We have this gentleman in our complex that we see all the time! And where do we see him you ask? Well, he's always...in his garage/storage space...where he keeps his old Chevy...drinking beer....sitting on stool...alone. His outfit always consists of his floral print swimsuit, no shirt and his sneakers! I laugh everytime we drive by! Only once have we seen someone else in there with him! We've speculated that his wife gave him an ulimatium between her and the car...which would explain why he spends so much time with his beloved!

I swear in the building across from us, its just one big polynesian family living in the whole building! The kids are really cute! (Other than when they are running around screwing up my tv signal!) If I ever truly steal a small brown child, I know he lives in that building, I saw him! Chubby, brown and google eyed! He couldn't be more adorable! Ha ha! But the other day while Devin was outside, he heard shouting from over there. Well one girl was swearing profanities at another and we just passed it off as a love triangle gone wrong, a lovers quarral, or siblings! We sometimes have some really scary looking men walking through the complex and I don't know if they live there or if they are cutting through from trax to State Street. But good thing I've got my 6 pound guard dog who barks and growls from the patio window!
